Quantum Deformations of Fundamental Groups of Oriented 3-Manifolds

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We compute two-term skein modules of framed oriented links in oriented 3-manifolds. They contain the self-writhe and total linking number invariants of framed oriented links in a universal way. The relations in a natural presentation of the skein module are interpreted as monodromies in the space of immersions of circles into the 3-manifold.
